Manage Environments

By default, all projects created in the cloud data planes (irrespective of the data plane region) are provisioned with two environments (i.e., development and production).

The environments are listed in the order of deployment and promotion. The initial deployment takes place in the first environment and you can proceed to promote a component to subsequent environments.

Create a new environment

Prerequisites

• To create a new environment in a private data plane organization, you must have the ENVIRONMENT-MANAGEMENT permission. By default, ENVIRONMENT-MANAGEMENT permission is granted to Admin, Choreo Platform Engineer and Choreo DevOps roles.

To create a new environment, follow the steps given below:

1. Sign in to Choreo.
2. In the Choreo Console, go to the top navigation menu and click Organization. Then select your organization.
3. In the left navigation menu, click DevOps and then click Environments.

4. On the Environments page, click Create and specify the following details to create a new environment:

   • Name: A display name for the new environment.

   • Data Plane - The data plane to create the new environment.

     Tip

     The Data Plane list displays all the private data planes registered under your organization.

   • DNS Prefix: A DNS prefix to identify the exposed APIs in the environment. Here, the base domain depends on the custom domain attached to the API gateways provisioned on the selected data plane.

   • Mark environment as a Production environment: Select if you want this environment to be a production environment.

     Tip

     In Choreo, you can have multiple non-production and production environments. To work in a production environment, you must have privileged permissions to access and deploy to production environments.

Delete an environment

To delete an environment, follow the steps given below:
